Overordnede kursusmål
To qualify the student for design and analysis of next generation
telecommunication networks with focus on target network services
and in regard of choice of concept, architecture and protocols.
Læringsmål
En studerende, der fuldt ud har opfyldt kursets mål, vil kunne:
- Describe the mechanisms and interactions involved in multimedia
transmission over IP and analyze requirements for specific
applications, in terms of scalability and other.
- Apply the previous abilities to design architectures allowing
streaming-based services.
- Describe the characteristics on main VoIP signalling
protocols/architectures (SIP vs H323) and analyze SIP & H323
behaviour, based on experimentation and traffic analysis.
- Infer similarities and differences of basic SIP-based
architectures vs complex ones, i.e. UMTS's Internet Multimedia
Subsystem (IMS).
- Describe the requirements for interoperation of conventional
telephony (PSTN/SS7) architectures, with VoIP-based ones, for basic
voice services as well as for supplementary services (i.e.
IN).
- Apply the previous abilities to analyse service requirements
and to design adequate architectures allowing the provision of
telephony services in hybrid and/or converged telephony
networks.
- Organize, plan and carry out collaborative work in group
projects
- -
Kursusindhold
The course addresses emerging telecommunication services and
network architectures with a strictly technological focus and
leaves market, business and regulation aspects out of
consideration. Initially the focus is on current IP-based
commercial telecom-related services such as multimedia streaming,
voice over IP, IP telephony and the Internet Multimedia Subsystem
(IMS) for UMTS. This continues to protocols and architectures for
providing hybrid and converged voice based services and Next
Generation Networks (NGN). Finally platforms and architectures for
service development and provision in a converged, IP based network
are discussed.
The course is designed also to address generic competences such as
communication skills, ability to think critically and creatively,
drive to work with open problems, team work, control of self and
group learning, self confidence and adaptability to demanding and
changing environments.
Bemærkninger
Working teams will be formed during the first week of the course,
so students not attending the course during that week will be
considered as dropping the course.
This course is suitable as part of a Ph.D. study plan.
